28 May 2021 Hi,

Can anyone please clarify if a CA in full time employment can have his own CA Proprietorship Firm rather than entering into any partnership firm?

Also, I would be grateful if the above point is clarified with reference to any particular "Act" and "section" or any guidelines.

Thank you in advance.

28 May 2021 Yes, provided your employer allows it.
